    my Tiger800 roadie (2013) takes a standard flat screwdriver, don't know exactly how yours is different but suggest you ask your Triumph dealer, if it's a special tool you should get it there.

    A flat screwdriver for rebound adjustment but the two prong/pin tool is needed for preload.
    My local dealer knows about as much as I do about this.

    Only just joined and just seen this post.

    I have a 2015 XCX which should have the same WP rear shock as the XCA.

    Rear preload adjusted using a 5mm hex / alan key.

    Rear rebound adjusted with a small flat head screwdriver.

    (ref pages 134 and 135 in owners handbook.)

    I adjust mine every now and again to make sure it the adjusters don't seize up.
